I am trying to find a product that can scale an input voltage of 0-5VDC to 0-10VDC (so multiply by 2). I am thinking an OPAMP may be able to do this? I don’t have experience with these so am hoping someone can help me specify one. I need the supply voltage to the amplifier to be 24VDC.

Thank you!  
Jay

Welcome to the forum!

Depending on how close to 0V it has to go, and how much current it needs to deliver, a simple single supply Op Amp circuit may be able to do this. If you need to go lower than about 0.4V and/or need to deliver more than a few mA’s of current it can get complicated and/or expensive.
